“I was really impressed with him. He was nice and helpful and as an impartial observer, the reality touch he gave was very useful. His style was fair, realistic, and sensible. He was chosen based on his experience and as a solicitor.”
“Thank you Kevin for your patience and incredible endurance in leading this matter to a positive outcome for all parties.“
“... he was sensible, thoughtful and finally managed to broker an agreement when initially the parties were poles apart. He did a very professional job under difficult circumstances.“
“He is uniquely qualified to be a mediator. He was dedicated, organised, experienced and proficient.“
“Kevin was 'brilliant'. He made me feel so comfortable and I hadn't expected to. I felt very comfortable going into the mediation. He had spent a lot of time the week before working with me and talking about the issues ... he brought gravitas and stopped the whole process from breaking down.“
“Kevin was excellent as usual who deals with these disputes extremely well. He is sympathetic to the client and understands that settling the dispute will result in a release of stress and pressure. He facilitated a settlement and closure for everyone. We thought he was very good.“
“Kevin was patient and yet kept everyone focused on the desirability of achieving a settlement. We all started poles apart...That a resolution was reached at all is not only a testament to the mediation process itself, but to Kevin's own skill.“
“KS worked very hard all day and into the night, ensuring that we reached a settlement that at earlier stages had not looked possible. He came up with useful suggestions as to how to frame offers so that they would appeal to the other side.”
“Kevin was able to provide a useful oversight into the mediation process and the preparation that would be expected by the parties. He set down clear steps that needed to be taken to ensure the parties could best resolve their dispute. We were able to identify the documents that it would be useful to include in the mediation bundle. As a practitioner, I have had limited experience of mediation, therefore the initial contact assisted significantly.”
“We were also very impressed by the energy displayed by Kevin throughout the very long day, and I am confident that this contributed to the successful outcome.”
“Your skilful assistance and oftentimes persistence also contributed to securing a successful outcome, for which (my clients) and I are truly grateful. Equally impressive were your manual dexterity skills in faultlessly handling the mediations virtually online. Very well done!”
“You were a most proactive and hands-on mediator and brought your many years of obvious skill, dexterity and legal prowess to the process, which was appreciated, as it certainly helped the parties to move matters further forward, however much at loggerheads and daggers drawn we were during the process!”
“Thank you very much indeed for your hard work yesterday in assisting us in achieving settlement. The matter had become far more legally and procedurally complex than it perhaps needed to be, and it was very helpful indeed that you had mastered the issues in such a short space of time.”
“It was a privilege to witness your calm, measured, authoritative yet warm approach and your making of strategically correct decisions at every stage.“
